“We were charged at by a gorilla, climbed into ravines, crossed rivers over trees, suffered from heat and exhaustion, were greeted by a friendly snake guarding our water bottles, drenched by tropical rains, enjoyed surrealistic road trips, and enthusiastically welcomed by bees. We ate bananas and coconuts straight from the tree. And we listened, A Lot. The Gabon 2018 trip was an exhilarating adventure of which I’ll be telling stories for many years to come. Location after location we were treated to some of the most beautiful soundscapes I’ve ever heard: everything sounding so full of life and rich in atmosphere. We recorded in some of the most pristine nature and most remote places I have ever been to. This country is amazingly beautiful, wild, the people are really kind and the wildlife is sometimes just a few meters away. George is an excellent travel companion and a great organizer. And also an adventurous and generous recordist! I wanna go again!”
